Deputy Mayor Shen instructed him to write a self-criticism report promptly. Plunging into the finance department, under the guidance of Zhang Lan, Han Yu scribbled a self-criticism report of over two thousand words, awkwardly knocking on the Director's office door.

"What is this?"

"Director Zhou, I was wrong. I need to reflect. Here is my self-criticism."

Today, not only the Police Bureau was named and criticized at the city-wide cadre meeting, but also the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, Health Bureau, Construction Bureau, Technical Supervision Bureau, Power Supply Company, and the Loving Sanitation Committee, all without exception for irregular charges.

Not attending the meeting, one would not realize how ruthless those units could be.

East City Development Zone had introduced an enterprise that sold canned special gases, including oxygen and acetylene, which required the installation of large gas tanks.

The inspection of pressure vessel installations is managed by the Technical Supervision Bureau. However, although the installation company hired by the enterprise was qualified and passed all inspections, because it was not the enterprise designated by the Technical Supervision Bureau, they outright refused to inspect them.

Several large gas tanks were installed; were they supposed to dismantle them and let the designated contractor of the Technical Supervision Bureau reinstall them? Due to this, an enterprise that invested millions hasn't been able to start operations since last year, resulting in significant losses.

Similarly, a company introduced by the Port District, that purchased an electric power transformer, provided a complete set of contractual and inspection certificates and the manufacturers were well-known domestically.

Their products were national exempt brands and met both national and provincial standards, but because they were not purchased from the Power Supply Company, the Port Supply Company refused to power them. Despite Director Miao from the Port District Management Committee approaching the Power Supply Company's manager several times, it was in vain.

The company had no choice but to purchase another transformer from the Power Supply Company and reinstall it.

Installation did not mean power was ensured. Even though the distance from the transformer to the high-voltage line was merely twenty meters, the Power Supply Company insisted on conducting a survey first, then designing, and finally their power installation company would do the installation, which merely involved connecting a few wires.

After several months of hassles, this additional work cost the company hundreds of thousands more.

Compared to these, the Police Bureau, despite not making much money, faced the most severe scolding directly from the public.

Director Zhou, after glancing over the self-criticism, asked with a wry smile, "Salted Fish, if the bureau decides not to intervene in your uncle and brother's case, what do you plan to do?"

"My master used to say, 'Heaven and Earth are big, but the uncle is the biggest.' Not only did he say that when he was alive, but he also acted accordingly. When Sister Zhang Lan got married, he arranged the seating order and insisted that Zhang Lan's uncle take the principal seat."

"So, if the bureau doesn't handle it, you're going to come looking for me?"

"Director Zhou, after all, you are the Director."

"But you are a police officer of the bureau, the Director of the Port District Bureau. There's a saying that one should not wash their dirty linen in public; coming to me wouldn't that be like slapping your own face?"

"When it deserves a slap, it has to be slapped. Once involved in such matters, you can't avoid it."

"Causing chaos in the bureau, aiming to unseat me as Director, does that benefit you?"

Han Yu was well aware that the Director was very angry, but not at him personally, and grinned, "It's not beneficial to me, but you definitely won't be unseated over something minor, as Mayor Shen mentioned that Secretary Ye highly regards you."

Zhou Huixin laughed heartily, "It seems I should ask you to speak highly of me in front of the city leaders in the future."

"Director Zhou, you think too highly of me. You should review my self-criticism report instead; if it's not profound enough, I'll re-write it promptly."

"It's quite good, quite deep. Keep it here for now."

"Is it just a notice of criticism or a warning?"

"With such a bad influence that made me unable to raise my head at the city-wide cadre meeting, even a warning is too light!"

"I accept it."

"Better go quickly, as far away as possible. By the time you return from your trip with Mayor Shen, the disciplinary action should be issued."

Disciplinary actions can be revoked.

As for the prohibition against promotion during the disciplinary period, for me, a newly appointed Port District Bureau Director and already a Deputy Director, it completely had no effect. He would not be able to become a Director within three to five years, or even forever at the Linghai Police Bureau, since there's only one Director title in Political Commissioner.

The only impact was regarding awards; his home full of various certificates of excellence, which he needed the least.

Han Yu stepped out of the office building, put on his helmet, gloves, mounted his motorcycle, and thinking of another person who was about to be dealt with, couldn't help but smile.
